Self-Injury Support Group
Whether you or someone you know or love struggles with self-injury, this is the community to discuss your experience, find support, meet others going through the same, and get advice on how to stop. Working together, we can help find alternative coping skills to reduce the urge to self-harm.
Does any one else ever get the urge to want to hear others say bad things about you? Sometimes I just want to hear someone else say the things my brain tells me- so I edge them on, but then they don't tell me what I want to hear. So I guess that's a good thing, but at the time I don't see it that way. It's like if I hear something bad said about me- in anger- it'll make me feel better. Almost like an emotional SI. or Just please give me one good reason to SI.

maybe ur self esteem is low- u dont think much of yourself so how can anyone else? if they say good things about u then u think they lying but if they say bad things u think 'well at least they didnt lie!' i used 2 expect people 2 see all my faults and i would test them and continually push them into sayin what i wanted 2 hear just so i could think ' i was right- they hate me' and then use it as excuse 4 si. it is just another form of punishment

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
